Re: Reputations. Do they deserve more careful thought?

As to negative reps: Occasionally, I have started to ding a post, but thought better because the person is new to the forums, and probably just hasn't acculturated himself to the Chief Delphi community yet. (I don't want to make a bad first impression on the newcomer.) However, if he has a history of exhibiting bad behavior, and should know better, then I will ding him.

(See, a curmudgeon can still have a heart. )
